in thread How much Perl6 have we got?

Unfortunately, it's not that simple. After installing this package, this is what shows up when I run this:
install Perl6::Pugs
ghc-pkg: cannot find package plugins
*** Inline Haskell support disabled.  If you want dynamic loading
    of haskell modules, please install the hs-plugins library:
        http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~dons/code/hs-plugins
    Remember to "make register" after "make install" for hs-plugins!

*** Perl 5 embedding disabled.  If you want Perl 5 support, please set the
    PUGS_EMBED environment variable to contain "perl5".

*** GHC 6.4.0 cannot work with GCC 4.0 on Mac OS X.
    Please use "sudo gcc_select 3.3" to pick an earlier version of gcc,
    or set the CC environment variable to "/usr/bin/gcc-3.3".
Running make test
  Make had some problems, maybe interrupted? Won't test
Running make install
Attempting to install the hs-plugins ultimately brings up this, after running make:
Rebuilding dependencies ... Could not find module `Language.Haskell.Hsx':
  use -v to see a list of the files searched for
  (imported from System/Plugins/Parser.hs)
Moving on, after changing gcc to 3.3, I then attempted to install Perl6::Pugs, it wouldn't install at all. I got this:
  Makefile.PL returned status 65280
Running make test
  Make had some problems, maybe interrupted? Won't test
Running make install
  Make had some problems, maybe interrupted? Won't install
I've attempted this before, so that's why I asked if there's a binary installation.
